When I started on the Rex I was lost too. Granted I understood the bios better than the pics you posted but still... I used prime95, super pi, and 2k6 for testing. I would only change one thing at a time. For example with clock skews for the nb. When I was getting close to 600fsb, I was using super pi and prime for testing. I would change the skews one level at a time, reboot and test. First thing I did was run super pi 1m since it's very sensitive to your stability. Sometimes you will be a little faster by upping vcore and making the cpu mroe stable. Of course run it over 5 or 6 times to get a clear result.
Then I would run prime95 small fft for a few minutes and then blend for a few. This is really where you find stability. Super pi 1m was just a quick speed/stability test. If I failed a thread in prime, I would write down how long it took to fail and what core. If it lasted longer than the last time I ran prime, I changed the clock skews more. If it failed at the same place, I would go back to where I started before trying skews. Make sense?
